    Years ago I use to grow some winter squash that were over 35 pounds.As the squash produces runners if the vines become damaged covering the damaged area with moist soil will correct the damage.Thank you for another important video.

    I have been growing swiss chard for a number of years.I only add a little olive oil to cook it covered less than five minutes.I never add any water when I cook any kind of green.Swiss chard is also healthy and delicious when eaten raw. Thank you for another nice video.

    Welcome! Thank you for stopping by and subscribing to my channel. To answer your question, I planted the Tiny Tim tomato seeds in a 5 gallon smart pot. It is a determinant tomato so it does not have long vines. However, I do give the stalks some support with bamboo stakes. Happy gardening!

    Hello! To check your hardiness zone do a Google search. Type in USDA Hardiness Zone Map and hit return. It should take you to a page that is the 2023 USDA Hardiness Zone Map. In that search bar type in your zip code and hit return. You should get s drop down that displays your current hardiness zone and temperatures. Not everyone's zone changed but many did. It s good to check to see if yours changed. Best wishes!

The seeds I bought are from Tree Collard plants grown in Michigan that have been outside for the last 5 years in USDA zones 5-6, and have survived temperatures to 0 F. I live in zone 5 at 8,000ft elevation and I am excited to see how these seeds grow in my area.
